I'm having a problem with the McAfee SCAN utilities...I am getting intermittently told that SCAN and COPY "Cannot locate the boot sector of disk x. Do you have a disk x?" where x is my current drive (usually a SUBST-created device, but this has happened on physical C: as well) NETSCAN has behaved the two times I have tried it. Is this a problem? (My apologies if this has been covered or if this is a RTFM problem) Im running Scan74B on a '386 under DOS 4.01/4DOS 3.01a with an Ethernet card installed. [Would being on a network cause local drive to fail on plain SCAN?] Doug

[Would being on a network cause local drive to fail on >plain SCAN?] Scan74B has some problems. It has been updated to Scan75, which I announced to this newsgroup a week or two ago. Please try the new version. Problems with the McAfee programs should be reported to them via email.
